The Blow Off Hog

Was it Mark Twain who suggested America and England were ‘two great nations separated by a common language’? This little piece of bus shelter advertising certainly seems to bear the theory out.

What self-respecting UK-based copywriter would come up with the picture and slogan shown here? And what self-respecting English lady would be prepared to take on the challenge of ‘blowing off’ the less than attractive energy hog pictured? Any takers? If there are, please post the ensuing video on YouTube and send the Gnome the link.
